2 CAUTION TO FORMER CANADIAN RESIDENT HOLDERS OF COMMON SHARES OF STORM GAS RESOURCE CORP. The instructions contained in this Tax Election Filing Package are of a general nature only and are not intended to be, and should not be construed to be, legal, business or tax advice to any particular Former Exchanging SGR Shareholder. This Tax Election Filing Package does not take into account your particular circumstances and does not address consequences that may be particular to you. All capitalized terms in this section have the meaning ascribed to them in this Tax Election Filing Package. The law in this area is complex and contains numerous technical requirements. Former Exchanging SGR Shareholders are urged to consult their own tax advisors for advice in respect of: whether or not they are Eligible Shareholders; whether or not they should make the Joint Tax Election (or any relevant provincial or territorial election); whether or not separate election forms must be filed with any provincial or territorial taxing authority; the proper completion, delivery and filing of the Federal Form (and any relevant provincial or territorial forms) and any other relevant documents, for those who wish to make the Joint Tax Election (or any relevant provincial or territorial election); the deadlines applicable to their own particular circumstances for filing the Federal Form (and any relevant provincial or territorial forms); whether or not their SGR Shares were held by them as capital property at the time of the Exchange (see Instruction #5); and whether or not they acquired their SGR Shares in a non-arm s length transaction for purposes of the Tax Act (see Instruction #7). A Former Exchanging SGR Shareholder that is a corporation, trust or estate should consult its own legal advisors for advice as to whether the representative signing the Federal Form (and any relevant provincial or territorial forms) has the proper authorization (see Instruction #20). It will be the sole responsibility of each Eligible Shareholder wishing to make a Joint Tax Election to obtain and complete all portions of the forms which are prescribed for such purpose under the Tax Act and any applicable provincial or territorial legislation relevant to such party, to sign the appropriate number of forms and to deliver two signed copies of each form to the Depositary for execution no later than the Depositary Deadline, duly completed with the details of the number of SGR Shares transferred and the applicable agreed amounts, in accordance with the limitations provided in the Tax Act, for the purposes of such election. Storm will not be responsible for the proper completion of any election form and, except for Storm s obligation to return the duly completed election forms which are received by the Depositary, to the applicable Eligible Shareholder within 30 days after the receipt thereof by the Depositary, Storm will not be responsible for any taxes, interest, penalties or any other costs or damages resulting from the failure by an Eligible Shareholder to properly complete or file the election forms in the form and manner and within the time prescribed by the Tax Act (or any applicable provincial or territorial income tax law). Compliance with the requirements to ensure the validity of any Joint Tax Election, including the timely filing thereof, will be the sole responsibility of the Eligible Shareholder making the election and Storm assumes no liability for the failure to execute and file a valid Joint Tax Election or for the late filing of any Joint Tax Election. The procedure and forms required to complete a Joint Tax Election are technical in nature and, as a result, Eligible Shareholders are urged to consult their own tax advisors as soon as possible regarding the deadlines and procedures for making the Joint Tax Election which are appropriate to their circumstances.

4 This tax election filing package (the Tax Election Filing Package ) is intended for former holders ( Former Exchanging SGR Shareholders ) of common shares of Storm Gas Resource Corp. (the SGR Shares ) who are Eligible Shareholders (as defined below) and who exchanged their SGR Shares for common shares of Storm Resources Ltd. ( Storm Shares ) pursuant to the arrangement (the Arrangement ) entered into pursuant to the arrangement agreement dated vember 10, 2011 between Storm Resources Ltd. ( Storm ) and Storm Gas Resource Corp. ( SGR ). Capitalized terms not defined in this Tax Election Filing Package have the meanings assigned to them in the Information Circular and Proxy Statement of SGR dated December 13, 2011 (the Information Circular ) furnished to SGR shareholders in connection with a special meeting of SGR shareholders held on January 12, 2012 to approve the Arrangement. Storm is willing to make a joint tax election (the Joint Tax Election ) under subsection 85(1) or 85(2), as applicable, of the Income Tax Act (Canada) (the Tax Act ) with each Former Exchanging SGR Shareholder who is an Eligible Shareholder (as defined below) in respect of the exchange of any of their SGR Shares under the Arrangement for Storm Shares. WHO IS AN ELIGIBLE SHAREHOLDER? An Eligible Shareholder is a Former Exchanging SGR Shareholder who disposed of SGR Shares in exchange for Storm Shares pursuant to the Arrangement and who immediately before the Effective Time on January 12, 2012 (the Effective Date): (a) (b) was a resident of Canada; or a partnership, all of the members of which were persons described in (a) above. Joint Tax Election will be made with anyone who is not an Eligible Shareholder. For the remainder of this Tax Election Filing Package, it is assumed that you are an Eligible Shareholder. THE EXCHANGE Each of your SGR Shares was exchanged under the Arrangement for 1.33 Storm Shares, subject to rounding for fractional shares. In this Tax Election Filing Package, we refer to the exchange of your SGR Shares under the Arrangement as the Exchange. TAX CONSEQUENCES OF MAKING A JOINT TAX ELECTION The principal Canadian federal income tax consequences to certain Eligible Shareholders of making a Joint Tax Election are summarized at pages 40 to 41 of the Information Circular. Eligible Shareholders wishing to make a Joint Tax Election (and any relevant provincial or territorial election) should consult their own tax advisors as the law in this area is complex and contains numerous technical requirements. For further information respecting the making of a Joint Tax Election, Eligible Shareholders are referred to Interpretation Bulletin IT-291R3 Transfer of Property to a Corporation under Subsection 85(1) (January 12, 2004) and Information Circular IC-76-19R3 Transfer of Property to a Corporation under Section 85 (June 17, 1996) issued by the Canada Revenue Agency (the CRA ). PROCEDURE FOR MAKING A JOINT TAX ELECTION To make the Joint Tax Election, you must properly complete and execute two (2) copies of the Federal Form 1 (and any relevant provincial or territorial forms) and ensure that such forms and any other required documents are sent by hand, courier or registered mail to, and are received by, Alliance Trust Company (the Depositary ) at its address set out at the end of this Tax Election Filing Package prior to 4:30 p.m. (Calgary time) on May 11, 2012 (which is 120 days following the Effective Date) (the Depositary Deadline ). Thereafter, subject to the election forms being correct and complete and complying with the provisions of the Tax Act (or any applicable provincial or territorial income tax law), Storm will sign the tax election forms received by the Depositary from an Eligible Shareholder prior to the Depositary Deadline and return them to such Eligible Shareholder by ordinary mail within 30 days after the receipt thereof by the Depositary.

For purposes of making a Joint Tax Election, two copies of a partially completed form T2057, referred to as Original Form T2057, are enclosed with this package. An Eligible Shareholder that is an individual or corporation should fill in the remaining information in each Original Form T2057 in accordance with the instructions below. Also included with this package are two copies of a partially completed form T2058, referred to as Original Form T2058, which are to be completed by an Eligible Shareholder that is a partnership.

Storm is required to file an income tax return for the taxation year in which Exchange occurred on or before the day that is 180 days following the end of its taxation year, which is scheduled to end on December 31, 2012, but could end earlier in specified circumstances. Eligible Shareholders are urged to consult their own advisors as soon as possible respecting the deadlines applicable to their own particular circumstances. However, regardless of such deadline, the Joint Tax Election forms of an Eligible Shareholder must be received by the Depositary for execution and filing by Storm no later than the Depositary Deadline.

Eligible Shareholders should consult their own tax advisors for advice as to whether separate election forms must be filed with any provincial or territorial taxing authority and the procedure for completing and filing any such separate election forms.

10 PAGE 2 OF FORM T2057 #4 If you are a corporation, indicate whether your SGR Shares transferred to Storm under the Arrangement represented 90% or more of all your properties. #5 In response to question 6 of the form, check the yes box if you held your SGR Shares as capital property for purposes of the Tax Act; otherwise, check the no box. Whether your SGR Shares were capital property to you is generally a question of fact which can only be determined based on a consideration of your particular circumstances. 3 The instructions below assume that you held your SGR Shares as capital property. #6 Respond to this question only if you checked the yes box pursuant to Instruction #5. In response to question 6(a) of the form, check the no box since SGR was incorporated after V-Day. #7 Respond to this question only if you checked the yes box pursuant to Instruction #5. In response to question 6(b) of the form, check the yes box if you acquired your SGR Shares after December 31, 1971 in a transaction considered not to be at arm s length for the purpose of the Tax Act; otherwise, check the no box. Whether your SGR Shares were acquired in a non-arm s length transaction is a question of fact and law. For example, one circumstance in which individuals are considered not to be dealing at arm s length is when they are connected by blood relationship, marriage or common-law partnership or adoption. 4 #8 Respond to this question only if you checked the yes box pursuant to Instruction #5. In response to question 6(c), check the no box. #9 Insert the paid-up capital of your SGR Shares transferred to Storm under the Arrangement. The paid-up capital of your SGR Shares will be determined by multiplying the number of your SGR Shares in respect of which you are making a Joint Tax Election (see #11 below) by the paid-up capital per SGR Share immediately before the exchange. The paid-up capital per SGR Share immediately before the exchange was $4.97. For example, if 100 SGR Shares were transferred to Storm, the amount inserted in box #9 would be $ (i.e. 100 x $4.97). #10 Insert the number of Storm Shares that you received in exchange for your SGR Shares. 3 4 See page 38 of the Information Circular for a discussion of the circumstances in which SGR Shares are considered to be held as capital property. There are several other circumstances in which persons will be considered not to deal with each other at arm s length. For additional information, please see Interpretation Bulletin IT-419R2 Meaning of Arm s Length (June 8, 2004) issued by the CRA. DOCS #
